I did not read all the commenst. But to the original poster, I always had a very good sex drive. I was always ready and as I started to loose weight I lost it and its still gone. My husband is getting more and more angry. I hope I get it back one day.

Haha...supposedly for every 20 lbs you lose, you gain back an inch of your penis that was lost in the fat. Bonus! LOL

Hey that's true! Everytime I pass the mirror I think "hey! where did that come from?" :tongue:

I tell my wife, "Hey! doesn't this look bigger?" She just rolls her eyes... :tongue_smilie:

But my sex drive has increased many times over so far. I think it's the self confidence issue fading away. When you start looking in the mirror and seeing a body from yesteryear and think, "damn - I look pretty good again" it drives the bus so to speak.

I have always had a healthy appetite (for food and nookie). That hasn't changed since surgery, but my husband wants it twice as often as before. The loss of inches has removed some of the padding that was in the way of deeper penetration, and my flexibility is amazing now. It is also much faster for me to reach climax now :frown:

I'm sooo glad I found this thread! I thought I was the only 28 year old with little to no sex drive! I hope to God my sex drive returns. When I was dating my husband we would have sex a least 5x a week multiple times a day, and now we're lucky to get it in once every few weeks! I hate it, hopefully it will all change after we are both banded.

This thread is cracking me up. But one thing I can vouch for to all the guys is that as you lose lbs, you gain inches, and the same the other direction. I used to be ~150 lbs lighter that I am today, and I still remember how it "used to be". I'm getting banded soon... so hopefully I'll drop 150 (or more) and relive the glory days and some.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
